Handling Looters (1 Viewer)

[Roy L Fewks]

If I shoot and kill someone because they broke a window, the consequences would be far more damaging to my life than an insurance deductible.

Really?  I'm pretty sure no jury would convict someone protecting SELF and property from looters.  I'm reading about several instances today.  No charges will be filed and if they are, no jury would convict.  

This is a really shortsighted and cynical view of the world.

It's cynical because it presumes that rules, regulations and laws should be ignored based on little more than feeling and opinion.

It's shortsighted because it presumes that killing a human being (for doing nothing more than breaking glass) will not have any other longterm negative impact on my business.

Protecting self and property is our right.

Well, this is just wrong.

Defense of property is limited, and varies wildly from state to state.

No state allows you to kill someone, without proper warning, solely because they broke your glass.
